Ence’s biofactory in Navia starts a production stop

Ence Navia’s biofactory in Spain starts a production stop, which will last until October 30, with the aim of completing the expansion project called “Navia 80”, as the company says in the press release received by Lesprom Network. 

This action implies the improvement of almost all the industrial processes of the plant. The facilities will see their efficiency remarkably increased, while progressing towards excellence from an environmental point of view.

The project that is now culminating will increase the production capacity of the biofactory by 80,000 tons, to reach a capacity of 620,000 tons of pulp per year. This increase is based on the direct technological optimization of equipment and systems throughout the entire process, which will eliminate the current bottlenecks.

Together, it is an investment that exceeds Euro 113 million, of which a third, Euro 35 million, are used for environmental improvements. In this area, the reduction of water consumption or the improvement of effluent quality, as well as the eradication of odors and the minimization of noise stand out.
